She also congratulated the teachers for putting in extra effort to make sure that the pandemic does not affect student progress and future in any way. “This is a reflection of the quality of teaching, learning opportunities and the diligence of our teachers. Not to forget, the cooperation and guidance of our parents who have been a strong pillar of support.”

Global Schools Foundation chairman Mr Atul Temurnikar also heartily congratulated the students and wished them good luck in their future endeavours. At a recently held graduation ceremony, Mr Temurnikar had advised them on 10 tips that would hold them in good stead for the future.
